An employee report in Tempus is a manual balance adjustment: an HR-initiated transaction that adds or removes hours or days from an employee's balances, for cases the automatic system (time-points, declarations, decisions) cannot cover.
Overview
Use an employee report when a balance needs a direct, human-curated change, such as crediting compensatory time-off for a missed holiday or deducting a day after a leave reclassification. The page lets you create adjustments, edit them, and browse history.
What it does
Transaction type sets the direction (Credit adds, Debit subtracts) and Type / Sub type pick the balance the hours land in, using the same categories as the absence form (a legal holiday credit needs a sub type so it shows in the calendar's rights breakdown).
Whole year is shown for Legal holiday only (sick leave and special leave are always booked over dates) and is on by default: the transaction applies to the whole current year (1 Jan – 31 Dec) and you enter the amount yourself. A whole-year Debit is a correction of the legal holiday rights, so it must be of type Legal and carry a sub type (Rollover, Custom, …); sick leave and special leave are always booked over a date range. Switch Whole year off to pick a Date range instead; the picker offers This year, Last year and This month presets, and leaving the range empty still applies to the whole current year. Half days appears only for a Debit with a date range, and calculates 4 hours per working day instead of 8.
Amount is in hours, minimum 4. On a Debit with a date range it is calculated from the working days in the range (weekends, public holidays and days already booked are skipped) and you can still override it; with Whole year on, or on a Credit, you enter it by hand. Note is free text kept on the row.
The adjustment is immediate with no approval flow: the active contract's balance changes as soon as you save, and the HR user is the approver of record.
Deleting a row
Each row carries a Delete action. It asks for a reason (required, at least 5 characters) and only removes the row once you confirm: the row disappears from the report but stays in the database, together with the reason and the audit-trail entry naming who removed it and when.
